Finnvær Lighthouse

About

Finnvær Lighthouse (Finnvær fyr) is a coastal lighthouse in Frøya Municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway. The lighthouse is located at Finnværet on the small island of Valøya in the Froan islands. The lighthouse is located about 40 kilometres (25 mi) northeast of the Sula Lighthouse which is at Sula, about 25 kilometres (16 mi) northeast of Vingleia Lighthouse, and about 18 kilometres (11 mi) southwest of the Halten Lighthouse at Halten. The lighthouse was originally built in 1912 but in 1985 it was closed and a new automated tower was built right next to it.
